Recent Reddit-converts, how many times have you "mistakenly" opened Reddit in the past day? (lemmy.one)

My fingers just keep pressing Ctrl+T, r-e-d, enter, before I jolt awake and think "I told myself I would not do this!". I may have a problem.

None, I logged off my account to prevent "unintended" logins while opening the browser and I started my "personal" blackout during reddark stream (I'm not a mod so I didn't have any task to do on it).

I'm not feeling any need to go there either, I feel busy here and that's nice.

I removed the app from my phone and replaced it with Jebora.

Ha, I am one of those dinosaurs that uses a browser on an actual computer. But I guess I could block the reddit domain to ween myself off of my addiction.

[–] havilland@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

On pc I blocked all Reddit sites on uBlock.

[–] Fordry@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Dunno, at least 10

[–] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I logged in yesterday to take my sub dark and I've replied to a few comments on a post I made about a week ago looking for help with a router, but I used RiF to reply to the comments, other than that I've been using Lemmy

None yet, replaced the reddit app icon on my home screen with a Lemmy app instead. So, I've "accidentally" used Lemmy 😅

[–] Moghul@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm a pleb so I click stuff. I just replaced the bookmark in the same spot, and I replaced RIF with Jerboa.

[–] leamaya@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I replaced my Reddit app (boost) on my Homescreen with jerboa so muscle memory will always take me here And to be extra sure I paused the Reddit app so if I try to open it I would get a popup from Android if I am really sure

So to answer the question: since replacing the app on the Homescreen not a single time

I moved the mlem app to where my Apollo would usually be and hid Apollo which has made it a lot easier to not mistakenly open Reddit

[–] demonmariner@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

I deleted the app on my phone. I rarely used the website so no problem.

[–] Pixelphoria@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I was a heavy user and have abandoned it and haven't even accidentally gone back to it. Rip the band aid off as they say

[–] communist@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I had to set beehaw.org to be the default in libredirect.
